OFF-SPEC CARGO SHIPPED FROM MAPUTO, MOZAMBIQUE

Off-spec cargo shipped from Maputo, Mozambique: We represented the voyage charterers and sellers of a bulk cargo found to be off-spec after it had been loaded on board at Maputo, Mozambique. We conducted an extensive investigation into the incident, including interviews with witnesses and collating and analysing documentary evidence. In addition to legal advice in respect of a potential indemnity claim against the loading terminal, we were able to provide clients with a comprehensive analysis of risk mitigation strategies which could be employed in the future.
